The old schoolhouse in Breckenridge, Colorado, seen from the northwest, is a frame, cross gabled, two story structure featuring a belfry with four sided arched dormers and a conical roof topped by a windvane with compass point indicators. The gables are finished with jigsawn bargeboard, the sash windows are pedimented throughout, and the northern gable has a flagpole rising from its peak. A catwalk leads to it along the roof ridge. The entry below has a simple portico with a sign over it that is illegible. A brick chimney rises from the gable in the right. A white plank fence surrounds the school, and other frame buildings and evergreens are in the background.
